You basically layer it up. Start with the broad base and blur it a little then add layers and use stronger colors and make them smaller and smaller and a little stronger towards the center of the cloud. The broad base is the back or rear of the cloud the stronger colors are the front of the cloud. Use the burn and dodge tool to create some hot spots. I cant remember the filters I used just play around with the filters and find one that gives you some good cloudy look. Add some Lightwave lens flairs for stars being born and your golden.

In retrospect I should have mixed in some other colors other than blue.
