Yes, I'd say VAG Rounded Light and Arial Rounded MT Bold

Some differences between these similar faces:

* lowercase "a" is looped in VAG Rounded, open in Arial Rounded
* lowercase "t" has bottom curl in VAG Rounded
* "C" and "c" are more tightly curled in Arial Rounded
* lowercase "r" has a more horizontal curl in Arial Rounded
* Numerals are more curvy in Arial Rounded, the "1" and "7" considerably more so
