Photoshop makes a very lovely transparent cloud wallpaper

The effect diagram looks simple, the production is still very fastidious. The transparent effect and thickness of the cloud need to be rendered out, somewhat similar to the production of crystal effect. The shape of the cloud can be drawn according to its own liking.
Final effect

1, open Photoshop, create a new document. I use the size of the 2560x1440 pixel. After that, make the background-level edit click it by double-clicking it, then go to the Layer > Layer style > Gradient overlay. Use the color radial style and use # and #96ccee Ddeffa.

2. The Ellipse tool (U) creates a circle. Color doesn't matter, at this point.

3, copy, move it to the front right. Make it a little bit smaller.

4, add the other side of the circle. Use the following references to pay attention to the image, overlapping circles.

5, to complete the cloud shape to add another circle, this time is bigger. Once you have the shapes you like the clouds and group them into groups, then go to the layers > Merge layers. You will have a circle with the clouds.

6, select the layer in the cloud, we merged, and go to "Layer > Layer Style >" Color overlay. Use color for white.

7, select bevel and relief. For the style of the application of the inner bevel, the depth of 100%, for the size of 8 pixels, for softening 16 pixels, for angular 90°, for elevation of O countour, for the gloss using the image used in the single context. Also for the highlight mode and shadow mode, use the color and black color to deepen the blending mode and opacity 54% for the first and last 60%.

8, select the inner glow. Use 100% opacity and color for white to illuminated, 100 pixel size.

9, now select the inner shadow value to adjust as follows.

10, the last layer of style, we will use shadows, but the realism of the shadow is to let some background on the Biyun and because they use the same color.

11, here is our cloud, to produce the final result. This is already a very good result, but I think it still needs a certain depth.

12, to increase the depth, we will do some very simple. To draw on the circle, we will build new layers with them so that they have the same layer as the cloud, so that we will add some of our cloud cover. The first thing, though, would reduce the opacity of the clouds to 30%.

Now, create a circle of subtitles to select one, then select the clouds and repeat and go to "Layer > Layer Mask >" from the Transparent area. Move this new layer to the bottom of the cloud.

13, choose "Filter > Blur" Gaussian Blur. Use a 20-pixel radius.

14, with the circle of the fuzzy volume becomes very subtle, like the following picture. So if you want to have more highlights, use less blur.

15, repeat the same thing. Note that you can create random effects from disconnecting layer masks and moving layers, as I do here on the left circle.

16, the following is the final result, the cloud now looks super fluffy. But it is still unfinished.

17. Make some rainbows, I created one of the colors of this rainbow, using rectangles. Since then, I have merged into a layer and applied the Gaussian blur area, the following cloud creates a nice transparent effect.

18, create a Cloud shape selection and add a new layer, fill the color of the rainbow, and apply to at least 100 pixels of the radius of Gaussian blur.

19, two repeated clouds. Adjustment level. Please note that I do not repeat the colors of the rainbow.

20, now let's add some text. I use the word Abduzeedo. Create the same fluffy effect with some layer styles.

21, with the following values.

22, layer Merge, and then go to filter > Noise > Add Noise. Using the 1.5%.

Final effect:
