Vector Calc Question (Stokes Theorem)

Prove that the flux of a constant vector C over a surface equals half the line integral around its boundary of C x r.

All I can see is that by Stokes' Theorem, it would be true if curl(C x r) = 2C. When I calculate curl(C x r), I get something that looks like C * -grad(r) x grad(r), which should be zero.
