The first Tutorial video on the following page covers Ingesting and applying an IPTC Stationery Pad in the process.  The first minute of the video covers this process.  The rest of the video covers other subjects like using color class labels and printing.

We don't recommend ever editing on the card.  We suggest Ingesting first and the tutorial shows you how to download and add metadata at the same time.  Also, cards are fairly slow so getting the images on to your hard drive right away speeds up your entire editing process.
