    Step 2: press 'D' to reset your colours and then Filter>Render>Clouds

    Step 5: once you have the colour youw ant you now have to make a new layer to do this press ctrl+J

    Step 6: now go to Filter>Blur>Guassian blur and play around with the setting til you get what ya want ( i usually use round about 4.2)

    [​IMG]

    Step 7: set the layer to overlay and then merge down by press ctrl+E
