To use SMS/MMS messaging from the iPad Messages App, your iPhone must be logged-in to iCloud with the same AppleID - and message forwarding to your iPad must be enabled on the iPhone.

Also ensure that Messages for iCloud is enabled on both iPad and iPhone:

Settings > [Your Name / AppleID > iCloud > Messages - set to ON
