Okay

i have found them in the purchased app store

That is where your purchased apps should be listed.

but only the ones i have deleted and dont want have the cloud next to them so you can re load them?

Yes. Tap on the cloud icon to have those apps re-downloaded to your device free of charge.

the ones i want just have open by them! so i can open them like that but how do i get those back to the screen as a shortcut?

The ones that have "open" by them are the ones that should be already installed on your device. If you are not seeing them you should try rebooting your device.

If the apps have open by them they are already on the phone. Try rebooting the phone. Try swiping left to see if there are other home screens. If you still can't find them hook up to iTunes and then you can remove them and reinstall.
