After Creating a Path…

Select the path with the Direct Selection Tool.
Translation: Take the white arrow in your toolbar and click on the path. The anchor points will appear letting you know it’s selected.
Create new fill or adjustment layer.
Translation: Click on the half white/half black circular icon at the bottom of the layers panel. From the pop up select the type of layer you wish to create. (Solid, Gradient, Pattern, etc.)

A Vector Mask generated from your Path will now be included in the layer you just created.
