I created a template and placed it in Custom Office Templates folder. Then I opened an existing document, selected the Developer tab, clicked Document Template, selected my custom template, and clicked Attach. Nothing happened to my document. The template
contained an image on the cover page and a water mark on the other pages, so I expected them to appear in my existing document. Did I something wrong?
No, you didn't do anything wrong. Templates simply don't work that way. Once a document has been created from a template, the contents of the document are completely independent of the template.
You'll have to create a new document from your new template, then copy the contents of the existing document except for the last paragraph mark ¶ into page 2 of the new document.
