Unable able to make the .spotlight.project: nth-child(even) alignment work

Can someone help me figure this out? I am unable able to make the .spotlight.project alignment work for me. My projects are still tiling down and not across. Here is my code for work.php and style.css. Everything looks ok but maybe I can't see my typo.

<div class="grid_6 spotlight project" style="background-color: <?php the_field( 'background-color' ); ?>">

        <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">
            <img src="<?php the_field ( 'homepage_slider_image'); ?>">
        </a>

        <h4> 
            <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
        </h4>

        <?php the_field( 'description' ); ?>

        <p> 
            <a class="btn blue" href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" style="background-color: <?php the_field( 'button-color' ); ?>">
                View  Project &rarr;
            </a>
        </p>

    </div>

.spotlight.project: nth-child(even) {
        margin-right: 0;
    }

Nevermind I got it. I had a space before nth-child. Should be typed as: '''' .spotlight.project:nth-child(even).''''
