Wow! This is so beautiful Karye! The colors and details are stunning and I really like the composition you have in mind! You could add more dark toning where the stamen would be casting a shadow and that would make the center pop even more! One note: it always looks better when (for example: the edge of a flower and the edge of a leaf do NOT line up.). In this instance, the left edge of the bottom left petal lines up with the left edge of the leaf below it. They are slightly off set on the pencil drawing, but appear to line up on the finished drawing. If possible I would try to erase the left edge of the leaf a little so it is not as wide. There is another instance on the middle right on your sketch drawing. The top edge of the middle petal lines up with the top edge of the leaf below it. In this instance you could fudge it and make the leaf wider or if you have not added it yet, change its position. Looking forward to seeing the finished piece!
