To add some space to the image.
(1) Often beneficial to add transparency to the image. Layers -> Transparency -> Add Alpha Channel
(2) Open Image -> Canvas Size and set the Height as required.
(3) If required move the image thumbnail to the top.
(4) Set Resize Layers to All Layers and click Resize
That might be enough for you.
Another way, instead of the clone tool is make a selection and copy a strip (5) then paste back in as a new layer (6)
(7) Move the pasted layer to suit, see if you can get a match. Sometimes differences in shading show up. Move the pasted layer to the bottom of the stack, and flip vertically (8) https://i.imgur.com/mZ9ehfO.jpg
