Re-check your reservoir for fluid level and re-bleed. I'd guess you let some air into the brake lines. Bleeding brakes takes some meticulous attention to every second of the job, it is easy to 'slip' during the process and any air in the lines is not acceptable. If you 'think' you may have errored a little during a brake bleed, you pretty much should go back and start the whole deal over again..
