def create_welcome_message(sender, **kwargs):
    if kwargs['created']:

You need to pass keyword arguments to create() method even for kwargs['instance'] like:

.create(instance=kwargs['instance'])

Or you can use add() method instead:

Notification.objects.add(kwargs['instance'])

Better alternative for notification :

pip install django-notifications-hq

from django.db.models.signals import post_save
from notifications.signals import notify
from myapp.models import MyModel

def my_handler(sender, instance, created, **kwargs):
    notify.send(instance, verb='was saved')

post_save.connect(my_handler, sender=MyModel)
