Johnny,

Evince gets its visual appereance from the theme applied. The default 
theme for GNOME 3 is called Adwaita. I think you can tweak the css files 
of Adwaita to get the desired look for gtk3 applications in your
stumpwm environment.


In Fedora 15, these are the CSS files for adwaita:

  /usr/share/themes/Adwaita/gtk-3.0/gtk-widgets.css
  /usr/share/themes/Adwaita/gtk-3.0/gtk.css


I hope this helps you,
