title: Apply two drop shadow effects to a TextBlock in Silverlight
body: <p>I'd like to apply a glow effect to a <code>TextBlock</code> on mouseover.  I figured the quickest and simplest way to do this would be to use a <code>DropShadowEffect</code> and change the settings so it's directly behind the text, which works a treat.</p>
  
  <p>However, the <code>TextBlock</code> already has a <code>DropShadowEffect</code> on it, so when I mouseover the 'glow' effect replaces the drop shadow.</p>
  
  <p>I tried <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2932999/silverlight-4-how-to-apply-multiple-effects-to-an-element">this solution</a> of wrapping the <code>TextBlock</code> in a <code>Grid</code> and applying the glow to the grid, but that appears to cascade and override the drop shadow on the <code>TextBlock</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way to effectively apply two drop shadows to the same element, or is there an alternative way to implement glow on a <code>TextBlock</code> that's about as simple as this method?</p>
