If your background is fairly even, and the colours are different in the
stamp, then I had written a script that might work (not having seen a
sample image):  http://gimpscripts.com/2011/10/transparent-background/

This will turn the background transparent by matching with the upper left
colour of the background, selecting with a tolerance expanding the
selection, and doing a colour to alpha as suggested by others.

Give the script a try, ir might have reasonable results.  It works well for
me on solid background colours.
