God is supernatural. He has no limits. Why limit Him on Creation and (pretend?) to believe in God, a virgin birth etc.?

What is the most amazing part of creation? Is it that God took a load of existing matter and turned it into us? Or rather is it the actual act of creation?

By far the most important part of creation is the dialogue "fiat lux" "erat lux", or put another way, the big-bang. This doctrine of creation ex nihilo is what is important.

The means by which God took that matter, and turned it into the universe as we now know it, is on a totally difference level. Many theorists suggest that He used evolution; other believe that there is evidence of Intelligent Design. The act of creation is what is important.

God didn't use "evolution".

He spoke what He created into existance. The Hebrew also bears this out. He created in six twenty four hour days and rested on the seventh. THAT is what the Bible says. Of course you are free to believe whatever you wish.
