It kindof just looks like something thats done in MS paint.
To start with vectors, I would trace pictures so you can add shading and what not.
Though I give you props for trying a new style.

You gotta start somewhere! The most distinct part of a vector is sharp edges. You have the right idea with the sun's rays. Buuuut, you notice the clouds and sun are just soft brushed on. I'd recommend using the pen tool (there's a tutorial for it in the tuts forums here). It creates really clean and crisp lines and edges.
