Not sure if this is your problem, but could be.

A coloured background only works for objects that have a "transparent"
background.

An imported bitmap most likely does not have a transparent background, but
probably a white background. Putting a coloured box behind "a white paper
with text on" doesn work goood, what you need is "a transparency with text
on".
