[Christian Hoffmann]

Try this:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fancybox}
\usepackage{pstricks}
\usepackage{pst-grad}

\psset{linestyle=none,gradbegin=gray,gradend=lightgray}
\fancypage{\psframebox[fillcolor=white,fillstyle=solid,linestyle=none]}{\psframebox[fillstyle=gradient,linestyle=none]}

\begin{document}
\section{Blabla}
Gaga
\end{document}
