Here is the solution what you are looking for.

use this xml in drawable

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
 <selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

<item android:state_focused="false">
    <shape >
        <gradient 
            android:startColor="#2F000000" 
            android:endColor="#2fDEDEDE"  
            android:angle="270" />
        <!-- <stroke 
            android:width="1dp" 
            android:color="#bb00ff00" /> -->
        <corners 
            android:radius="3dp" />
        <padding 
            android:left="10dp" 
            android:top="10dp" android:right="10dp" 
            android:bottom="10dp" />
    </shape>
</item>

<item android:state_pressed="true" >

    <shape>
        <gradient 
            android:startColor="#2F000000" 
            android:endColor="#2fDEDEDE" 
            android:angle="270" />
       <!--  <stroke

I'm agree with Cata,but also you can use shapes or use semi transparent colors if these help you.You can see some primary details in about shapes in vogella.com or betaful.com
