Maybe the OP does not want it printed. Maybe the OP does not want to use a
scanner either.
To OP: Try changing to yellow shades:
Image -> Colour -> Colour Balance -> move last slider to the left
Also, in the GIMP 1.2.x, have a look under:
Script-Fu -> Decor -> Coffee Stain
Apply this to tiny images to achieve the desired effect at a small
granularity and then replicate the image and embed as a layer or background
in the primary image.
Hope it helps,
Roy
