Now you have two shapes.
Let's start with the shadow. Select one of the shapes, if none is already selected.
Go
to Modify> Shape> Soften
fill edges...
I choose
Distance: 9 px
Number of steps: 11
Direction: Inset
This shape is now really many different shapes. When you've just finished the
softening, all the new shapes are selected.
Convert them to a symbol:
Insert> Convert to Symbol... (F8).
I name mine "shadow".
Now it's in your library, and you can delete the instance from
the stage. (The original remains in the library.)

theCaramella started out as an artist, pencils and brushes. Then she bought her first computer, and then there were only computing. Now she's a full time student at the University of Oslo, Informatics of course, while giving some classes at rare occasions. (Who in this business' got money today?)
