Image editing!

Hi, I need some help with an image that I need to edit.

Is there a simple way in photoshop to get this image....

image: cloudc

To have a curly edge on the left side instead of the straight lines?

Any help appreciated <3

just download some cloud-brushes on www.deviantart.com

well i have some probs to find the right vocabs for the english version of photoshop but let me try to explain it:

there is also an option to make some kind of cloudeffect

just draw some clouds with a good fitting brush (airbrush for example) and mark the layer with ctrl+mouseclick. then go to the filter (look on img) and you can get some kind of cloufeffect. now use this soft-brush (?) to make it a bit more transparent. now you just have to play a bit around with some other sideeffects and voila you got a cloud ;) but the easiest way is downloading a brush on deviantart

mask the edge off?

Haven't got the foggiest in how to do that, I'm not too great with photoshop, certain things I know, but stuff like this stumps me!

google masking, you should be able to make like a curve shape that will remove the image to the left of it..
