It looks like you're creating it in a different database (and/or schema)
from the one you're trying to access it from. Functions are associated
with exactly one schema and this schema will exist in exactly one
database. Your search_path specifies the schema(s) to look in for
tables/functions, you can change it by doing:

SET search_path = myschema;

You need to be connected to the right database for this to work; "psql
-l" gives you a list. The command "\df" lists all (user defined)
functions that you can currently see.

Hope that helps point you in the right direction!
