First you have to crerate TextBox:

<TextBox Text="" FontSize="14"

FontFamily="Comic Sans MS" VerticalAlignment="Top"

x:Name="Nametxt" BorderThickness="1,1,1,1" Background="{x:Null}"

Style="{StaticResource TextBoxStyle}" Foreground="#FFFFFFFF" BorderBrush="{x:Null}" Margin="0,5,0,5" HorizontalContentAlignment="Right" Grid.ColumnSpan="1" Grid.Column="1" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Width="Auto"/>

And then you need to create TextBoxStyle that will target TextBox inside the Page.XAML or App.XAML.

<Setter.Value>

</LinearGradientBrush>

</Setter.Value>

</Setter>

<Setter.Value>

</Border>

</Grid>

</ControlTemplate>

</Setter.Value>

</Setter>

</Style>

Good Luck

i already visited "controls" videos, i could not find the video which shows how to round the corners of textbox or butoon, etc. although i found one video in which he showed to create a rectangle with rounded cornerns and create a textbox inside it wityh no border, which is not a nice a way to achieve this, is there any better way. ?????

Just about every SL control allows you to customize the default look & feel via templates. There are some videos on this website in the 'Learn' section that demonstrate this technique (on a button control I think). It will help to do this type of customization, if you also are using Expression Blend (in my opinion) because much of the templating work is design work.
