I kept the layout, sky, and sun but changed the scene. I too used a Hambo stamp.
I stamped Hambo's Hungry Caterpillar (2906) onto X-Press It cardstock with Marvy black dye ink. I colored it with Copic markers and then cut around the image. I stamped the image two more times to get some more leaves to add to my scene. I colored and cut those out as well.
Using a My Favorite Things die, I cut two strips of grass with patterned paper from Kaiser Craft. I then used a scrap of blue patterned paper (sorry, source unknown) for my sky. I simply drew the top of the sky's line to form the cloud-like appearance at the top. I added hand-drawn clouds out of white cardstock to the scene. This scene was then placed on a white cardstock panel. I paper pierced the top of the scene, and added a sun that is constructed with a button, Baker's twine and a hand-drawn rays from a piece of patterned paper from Bella Blvd.
The finishing touches include a hand-drawn heart colored with Copics, and the sentiment...which was a portion of a Hampton Arts Stamp that I inked with a Memento Tuxedo Black pen.

That fat & happy caterpillar has me in giggles, Kecia! So glad he's on paper, bringing happy smiles instead of munching on someone's prize garden IRL! LOL
