The filename is FindCreateResources.cmake, so must use exact that case:
find_package(CreateResources)

I'd suggest to start simple:

find_path( CREATERESOURCES_INCLUDE_DIR simple.kgr 
           PATHS 
           ${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}
           /usr /usr/local /usr/pkg
           /opt /opt/local /opt/csw
           PATH_SUFFIXES share/create )

if( CREATERESOURCES_INCLUDE_DIR )
  set( CREATERESOURCES_FOUND TRUE )
endif( CREATERESOURCES_INCLUDE_DIR )

(with cmake cvs it wouldn't be necessary to list all these paths, there it has 
CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH which has all these search prefixes)

Does that project have a homepage ?
