how to make a website stage 5 customizing colors and fonts

Choose a font from Google Fonts and include it into the page. This should be suitable for a headline element

a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

h1, h2 {
font-family: 'chewy', cursive;
 color: #fff;
}

nav a {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a:hover {
  color: #32673f;
}

this is what i've done but it is not working

First you have to import the font from Google before you do anything else in the css file, then you can use it.

@import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Chewy);

a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

h1, h2 {
font-family: 'Chewy', cursive;
 color: #fff;
}

nav a {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a:hover {
  color: #32673f;
}

Also, I think the font name is case sensitive, so make sure you use 'Chewy' and not 'chewy.' It may or may not be case sensitive. I can't remember.
