This is one of my all-time favorite stamping products, Distress Ink in Tea Dye by Ranger. 
Stamping wouldn't be the same without it, as I use every day on nearly every card (yep, I've used it today already)! All I do is take a SU sponge, rub it on the ink pad, and then rub it all over whatever image I want to distress. Here is a photo of what it looks like when I use the product on an image vs. when I don't. It's very subtle. This is a dye-ink and can be used with a sponge, dauber, or direct-to-paper. 
It can age photos and can be applied to paper and then sprayed with water and then left to dry as well. Ranger has many different varieties...I've got Walnut (very dark--be careful), Frayed Burplap, Peeled Paint, in addition to Tea Stain. If you haven't tried this already, I highly recommend it. You'll love it!!!!

I love your banner! And you just reminded me - I have some of that Tea Stain Distress ink - I should pull it out! Do you think it does a better job than Creamy Caramel or Close for Cocoa, for example? I'm an SU demo and I'm just now starting to explore some other things like my Cuttlebug, Basic Grey papers, etc!
