Welcome to SRP. Personally I wouldn't apply paste to my only strop. I'm not saying that you need to have a bunch of them but I like to have a regular strop and an alternative paddle or flat bed strop to use for pastes. Using paste every time you strop may be too much of a good thing IMO. Others may differ but that is the way that I see it. Yes, you do use the linen before the leather. Here is an excerpt from a barber's manual on stropping in the help files in the SRP Wiki where you can find many other tutorials that will be of help.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
