Will it be possible to create one mask (a rectangular image) with all four corners (colored), and use this to ...

I've been looking around, but I'm not able to find out how to create transparent, rounded corners.
The tricky bit is the transparency. I manage to create rounded corners with a colored background, but can not find out how to proceed to make them transparent.
