That's beautiful pics queeniewolf. I'm personally a huge fan of outlines, as I think these make it easier to distingish image parts, so I feel your image lacks a bit of contrast. Most noteable on the bright pink parts of the rabbit (ear&foot).
The scenery feels a bit contratictory to me: Grass looks as if it was middle of the day (high brightness, high saturation, rather bright green color), sky & shadows look as though it was evening. No matter what time I feel you need to make shadows more dark. Evening would have less sharp shading, but generally image should be a bit less saturated and somewhat darker. Noon would have sharp, dark shadow (as on left stone).
I'm not that good at creating contrast in colored pictures either, but I think, this is improvable here.
The blue background w/o clouds provides some more contrast (color-wise) and the bunny is more point of focus. Image looks more like it's afternoon.
The clouds make the image look more full / more complete, because there's hardly any empty space left. Red is dominant color of image. Therefor contrast is lower. Image strongly implies that it's evening.
Right now I'd say the clear sky one is better, because clouds draw too much attention compared to bunny. But in generall I prefer not-empty sky. I think if you make the background less saturated (imo that is also more natural) and the bunny more contrasted (more shadows), that would look great too.
