You can't draw outside of your application, without using Adorners or Popups, as Akku says in the comments.

But what you can do is to, instead of making margins negative, make them positive. So that your content (the gradient background), have a margin of 10 or 20 (or whatever number that produces the right amount of spacing.

<Window (.....) AllowsTransparency="True" WindowStyle="None">
    <Grid>
       <Button VerticalAlignment="Top" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Height="15" Width="15"/>
       <Border Margin="15">
            <YOUR_CONTENT>
       </Border>
    </Grid>
</Window>
