I need to make some water lilies and I have a question about coloring them. I would like to do some white and some pink. They are going to be on cookies for kids, so I want to keep it pretty simple. I do want to impress the parents, though!

How can I, using buttercream, get that variegated look when making flowers? Most pink lilies' bottom petals are white-ish with just a smidge of pink around the edges, and the petals gradually get more and more pink as you add layers. The inside/top layer is a bright fuschia. Does this make any sense at all?
It's so hard to put these things in words...
Anyway, how do I do that in buttercream? I don't have an airbrush gun, and they don't sell that deep pink color in those little spray cans...I'm at a loss. I would love any suggestions!!!
Thanks
