Beginner Gardening: What should I plant in my front yard?, 0 by Cincygal01

Hello, Please help!
I need assistance determing which flowers best suit my design plan. The plants will recieve full sun, especially in the morning.

There are two pictures. One is of my current yard and the other is what I hope to accomplish. I created the picture with plants from free internet software (showoff home design). The plants are not botanically correct, but I would like to stay with the same height and colors.

I only want to plant perennials and bulbs that will grow back every year. The garden must have lillies (not dayliles. I'm not opposed to having them somewhere, I just like the bigger ones).

Right now, I'm thinking of planting a 8-10' Crepe Myrtle for the tree, holly bushes for hedges, and orange lilies for the right border.

Suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Here's a link to the album in case the pictures don't appear below.
