That's because of the default style of the FlipView control.
To remove it you need to copy this default style (posted below) and remove the margin in the border:

Simply change the margin property on the border :
<Border BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}" BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}" Background="{TemplateBinding Background}" Margin="3">
by :
<Border BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}" BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}" Background="{TemplateBinding Background}" Margin="0">
FlipView tends to keep a small margin. If you just force it a Margin=-3 it will show your desired output. Alternatively, you can add another element just to make sure no "light" passes from behind without hacks.
<Grid Background="{StaticResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}">
<Grid Width="230" Height="300" Background="Red">
<Grid Background="Blue">
<FlipView/>
</Grid>
</Grid>
</Grid>
