Copy the clouds' layer with next combination: Layer -> Duplicate Layer. Apply also Filter -> Blur -> Gaussian Blur.



Merge now the first layer with the previous one: Layer -> Merge Down (ctrl+e), applying after that Filter -> Blur -> Radial Blur.



Start to colorize, setting preliminary in the brush's adjustments Hardness on 0%.
