Hey krissy45,
If you'd like to start using a different Apple ID that you use for iCloud, you'll need to sign out of any of these services you use: Sign out of iCloud on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Apple TV, or Mac - Apple Support.
Then, sign back in with the other ID you'd like to use instead: Sign in with your Apple ID - Apple Support
Please be aware that any Apple service you've subscribed to in the past and purchases you've made are tied to the Apple ID that was used to purchase or subscribe with. You'll need to re-purchase or re-subscribe again with the new ID.
Feel free to get back to us with any questions or problems you may have.
All the best.
