Today we are 2!
Its amazing how much we've grown since my very first, tentative footsteps into the world of business and had my first range of cards printed.
Enter the simple competition and you could win a notebook like those above, a roll of decorative tape like those below, and more!
I'm so grateful for all your support, encouragement (and custom!) over the last couple of years.
The lucky winner will receive ALL of the following:
To take part in our birthday celebration giveaway all you have to do is leave a comment below, telling me what you'd like to see next from dots and spots. Please suggest one new design and one new product. For example, Cupcakes would be a design and notebooks is a product.
It doesn't matter if someone has already suggested your idea, please take part and enter anyway (although the more original ideas the better) - who knows, your idea could be the inspiration for the next great dots and spots design or product!
The names of all those who enter will be put into a hat. Any blog followers who enter will have their name put into the hat a second time (not yet a follower? Its simple and free - click on the 'follow' button in the right hand column to start following my blog and double your chance of winning!) and anyone who posts a link to the blog will also have their name put into the hat a second (or third!) time.
Good Luck!
I look forward to reading all your suggestions.
Becky

Your designs are so lovely!
my suggestion is fruit designed preserve jar label sets(for all those homemade jam makers out there) and t-towels to match!
Thanks also for the opportunity to enter such a lovely competition!x
Hello, just discovered you on twitter and now a follower there and here. Your products are lovely.
As for a suggestion how about ducklings on a linen style ribbon?
www.angeleden.blogspot.com
I was looking for something for my Dad for fathers day so I'm thinking some thing for boys. He is a vintage car driver, specifically Frazer Nash but perhaps a vintage car theme overall with Nashes included as they are little known being quite rare now.
A notebook with a wipe clean cover or a clip file for him to put his papers in and scribbles when in the workshop.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!

A range of small gift bags would be wonderful, maybe raspberries, jam tarts, seed packets,or any of the deigns we already love. Also labels for preserves with any fruit, veggie or garden theme. Can't believe it's two years.....

Well done! Happy Birthday.
My suggestions:
Product: Calender
Theme: Seasons. Using different deisgns to represent the different months of the year. Summer: strawberries, spring: flowers and so on.
Best Wishes
Amanda :o)
Clothing can't be too far away now ur 2! I would suggest something fairly uniform size-wise, like hats, scarfs or belts before pitching against Kitston with summer dresses, swimwear and towels!
(Also doesn't that Children in Need bear wear a very spotty neckerchief - could there be some (non-profit) exposure down Pudsey's avenue...?
Owen
Hi Becky - congatulations on being 2 :)
My suggestions for possible new products would be a bus pass holder and a passport holder and maybe a spoon rest for the kitchen. My designs are Cats, or a little boy and girl (like our children) with dots and spots outfits on. You could use these on 'thank you for being a wonderful teacher' cards etc. Keep up the fabulous work :) Sally Barnard
Happy Birthday
Loving your work, and planning to buy one of your owl posters when we redecorate our nursery
Would love to see some cheeky monkeys, and some baby products -maybe vests? They'd make great new baby presents.
Been trying to rack my brains and keep thinking Tea towels... um...pencil cases too.. definitely stickers of some sort :)
Wouldn't want to limit you by saying what should be on them! X Gabs
Happy Birthday Hun!
I think a calender would be great, with different images relating to the different months. Xmas scene at xmas, camper van & beach huts in the summer, gardening & chickens in spring, wellies in autumn for example. Oo, I can see it now xx
Hi
I would love to enter your giveaway please! I would suggest for a theme paisley and roses, always a lovely classic combination and for a product aprons :)
Mel xxx

How about squirrels and hedgehogs and well on just about anything of your range would be fab! Happy Birthday and congrats on such a wonderful, bright and fun product I have only just found you and think some of that tape needs to be mine!!
Congratulations Becky, what a milestone.
How about invitation cards featuring all of your popular designs and perhaps buttons or cotton reels. xx
Happy Birthday!
I would like to see a design of teapots on labels or gift tags.
Andrea
Happy Birthday Dots & Spots! You have made such an achievement in just 2 years Becky...you should be very proud!
Well, my suggestion for a theme would have to be Toadstools! (especially since I share your obsession with all things red and spotty!!) I also love toadstools and would buy everything!! (You could extend the range to little woodland creatures too)
As for a product..hmm a little harder as you already do so many lovely products. Maybe some notelets with matching envelopes. Love the stickers idea suggested too - could have stickers to seal envelopes.
Thanks for such a fab giveaway!
Heidi xx

Another butterflies vote here and stickers or wallcharts for children.

Happy Birthday!!!

Congratulations and very big 'Happy Birthday'! Yours is such a brilliant business story! Anyway, my thoughts for a new product would be a celebration pack, i.e. a birthday book / calendar for keeping track of dates, all packaged up with a selection of your cards too so everything is in the one place! As for a theme, how about 'magic' - fairies, stars, witches, wizards etc. Anyway, hope your next few years are just as brilliant as your first few!
Happy 2nd birthday, Oh what a great giveaway. Now as cars feature muchly in my life, I would love chequered flags and vintage car on items like cupcake cases, teas cosies, oven mittens and paper naplins. Ideal for the petrolheads in my life.
From Lotus lover

Happy Birthday and well done to beat the recessions. I'd love to see board or spiral bound notebooks and how about piggies
Congrats! My design idea would be space rockets as there are never enough designs to suit boys and the products would be note pads and stationary.

Happy Birthday!!!!!
Just wanted to say what a fab blog.
My idea would be contemporary oriental notebooks
Claire xxx
I'd like some country-style Union Jack bunting
