Default coffee stain stamping?

Apparently I must not be good at searching....I thought I saw a thread about coffee dyeing and tea dyeing your cardstock.....does anyone know what I'm talking about or how to do this?
thanks!

I did a quick search on SCS, but didn't come up with much... When I googled, I found these two blog posts that might help:

Aging Paper

Staining Paper

I've never done this on paper, but I have done it on fabric--you just have to play with the strength and color of the tea to get the look you want.
Or, you could just use the Distress Ink in "Tea Dye" or "Old Paper" LOL

This sounds like a great idea for backgrounds. Thanks. I need to try this out.
