We'll work in layers. Use a hard pencil,HB or 2B, don't press too hard on the paper, you'll need to smudge later.

Step 9.
Blurr again and start adding details. Such as little "veins" on the petal, use a 2B mechanical pencil, if you don't have one, use a sharp normal one.

Step 10.
Draw even more, smaller veins. Make them more visible by erasing the space between them a bit usin a kneaded eraser(if you don't know what that is, it's a type of eraser that acts just like play dough, thus allowing you to make a sharp tip which you
can use for details).

Step 12.
Using an eraser, make those white lines. This is why I didn't make the center of the flower black from the begining, it would be more difficult to erase.

Step 17.
The bud requires more detail than every other part because that's the focus point of the drawing, the rest has to be blurred, thus less detail.Draw the other bud in the background, which is black, but make the edges blurry.

Step 18.
Now we're gonna make the background. Use 2B graphite powder and a piece of cotton. Apply the powder on the cotton and smudge in a circular motion.

Step 20.
Fill in the rest of the paper. You can blend the background and the petals a bit, but do NOT blend the bud into the background. This is all.
