Was the smoke white before you added the oil? If a lawnmower engine blows white smoke out its exhaust, it means that the engine is burning oil - meaning that there is too much oil in the engine. If you added more oil to your lawnmower after it already had more than enough, you're in for a bit of trouble.

Did you add too much oil? And when the engine was smoking, was it running and then started smoking and just stopped? Does the engine move? Have you checked the sparkplug? Have you tried to use started fluid? Was the engine low or had no oil in it when it started to smoke?
