You need to create a CMake project in Qt Creator, qmake is not a buildsystem supported by KDE. And you'll have to understand cmake syntax to write the needed cmake project files to find and use KDE4 libs and headers. You could use kapptemplate from the kdesdk package to create a basic KDE app and import that into Creator. Or you could use KDE's IDE, KDevelop instead which will allow you to create working KDE applications out of the box (if kdesdk is installed). Its not been released as stable yet, but AFAIK Kubuntu has the last beta packaged somewhere.
