Creative minds... I need your help.

I've been trying to establish a foundation planting that I'm happy with, for some time now. The front of the house gets FULL sun all day long. The areas right up against the house get some shade around 4pm. The area when facing the house just to the right of the front porch, in that corner area gets some shade around 2 or 3. Looking at the house, does anyone have some creative ideas as to what to plant? I was thinking a pencil holly all the way to the right near the corner of the house, and in the corner just to the right of the front porch that I mentioned earlier, I've planted a crape myrtle that will reach about 10ft tall (purple.) And it is far enough from the house, so don't worry. Other than that I've got no clue. I have some 'autumn lilac' azaleas (3) spaced out, centered in front of the right section of the house, which i read will only reach 3 or 4 feet, so I'm thinking about moving them up and placing something that will get a little bigger behind them? HELP!
