Step by step

5 deductions lead to the 5 stamps. Each placed stamp also rules out its row, column, touching cells and the rest of its region.

2. The teal region has only one cell left: row 4, column 1. Place the stamp there.
3. The green region has only one cell left: row 3, column 4. Place the stamp there.
4. The rose region has only one cell left: row 1, column 5. Place the stamp there.
5. The amber region has only one cell left: row 2, column 2. Place the stamp there.
