Hello! I am trying to edit an eps file with sparks.

 

When I use the white sparks at a colorful background the sparks stills white, but when I put them at a white background, everything goes white/black/grey.

That is because this spark depends on a certain blend mode, which won't work on white and which won't work with nothing below. I've explained it in a video:
