Dark lines divide my custom background when it is tiled

I have uploaded a custom image for the background of my email announcement. I thought when it tiled that I would not see the edges. The edges of the repeating image are outlined in a dark color. How do I change that so there are no visible lines for the repeating image. The screen shot is below. I will be updating my image to add more tiny drawings but the background will stay the same... any direction would be appreciated!

Okay -- it was my user error. I uploaded an image I created where the background layer did not bleed. That was necessary to ensure the exported PNG file had the color to the edge. Glad for this opportunity to get feedback and stretch my resolution skills!
