The entire Trinity ,not just the Father had a role in creation . The Son is the powerful Word : the Holy Spirit ( ruah ) , " Breath" , took an active role in the work of creation.
I started to say more but didn't have the verses handy.
1 It was the Father's plan
2 Everything was created by Jesus
John 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
Ephesians 3:9
And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:
Colossians 1:13
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: 14In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: 15Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature 16For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him
3 It was done by the creative power of the spirit
