How Do I Clone A DB

Using SSMS I created a new DB (lets call it NEWDB) then I created a backup of the DB I wanted to Clone (lets call the File Clone.BAK).  Now when I attempt to restore NEWDB with CLONE.Bak I get an error message: "System.Data.SqlClient.SQLError: The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'NEWDB' Database"  What did I do wrong?  I thank you for any suggestions, ideas, or comments.  ......Phil Hoop
