# --description--

The `box-shadow` property applies one or more shadows to an element.

The `box-shadow` property takes values for

<ul>
  <li><code>offset-x</code> (how far to push the shadow horizontally from the element),</li>
  <li><code>offset-y</code> (how far to push the shadow vertically from the element),</li>
  <li><code>blur-radius</code>,</li>
  <li><code>spread-radius</code> and</li>
  <li><code>color</code>, in that order.</li>
</ul>

The `blur-radius` and `spread-radius` values are optional.

Multiple box-shadows can be created by using commas to separate properties of each `box-shadow` element.

Here's an example of the CSS to create multiple shadows with some blur, at mostly-transparent black colors:

```css
box-shadow: 0 10px 20px rgba(0,0,0,0.19), 0 6px 6px rgba(0,0,0,0.23);
```

# --instructions--

The element now has an id of `thumbnail`. With this selector, use the example CSS values above to place a `box-shadow` on the card.

# --hints--

Your code should add a `box-shadow` property for the `thumbnail` id.

```js
assert(code.match(/#thumbnail\s*?{\s*?box-shadow/g));
```

You should use the given CSS for the `box-shadow` value.

```js
assert(
  code.match(
    /box-shadow:\s*?0\s+?10px\s+?20px\s+?rgba\(\s*?0\s*?,\s*?0\s*?,\s*?0\s*?,\s*?0?\.19\)\s*?,\s*?0\s+?6px\s+?6px\s+?rgba\(\s*?0\s*?,\s*?0\s*?,\s*?0\s*?,\s*?0?\.23\)/gi
  )
);
```
