I like the colors it just needs more blending

I actually disagree. I think the line could be a little bit sharper. are you just using shadows for the black? using a black eyeliner will help give you a crisper line and greater intensity of color. Blend carefully over the eyeliner with a black shadow then maybe brown just above the black shadow to help with blending. Again, blend very carefully and only upwards. You want to keep that sharp line intact.
This pic is using different colors but you can see what I mean about blending above the crease (use brown instead of pink in my example)

Here is another pretty cut crease (not my photos. I googled it to illustrate my points)

Oh, and one more tip: if you find that you've blended too low or aren't happy with the shape (assuming you've started with the dark color) you can use a little concealer, eye cream or eye primer to clean up the line, just as you'd do with say a winged liner. then pack your light color just up to, but not overlapping, the dark color. hope this was helpful. good luck, and good for you for trying something a little more challenging and daring :) I look forward to seeing your future attempts!

@Dawn: You explained everything perfectly :)
@ Brittany: Keep practicing, cut crease looks are pretty hard to master and take a lot of skill and practice, it's not an overnight thing, I suggest a lot of practice and a lot of YouTube tutorials, worked for me :) Good Luck :)
