Step 1Create a new document that is 8.5 inches wide by 11 inches tall. Then use the Ellipse Tool (L) and create a 6 inch by 6 inch ellipse.

Step 2
With the ellipse selected, create a Linear Gradient from the Gradient Panel. Add another swatch to the Gradient Slider by clicking just below the slider. Change the first swatch to a 57% black, the second swatch to a 12% black, and the third swatch to a 57% black.

Step 3
With the Gradient Tool (G), adjust the gradient by clicking and holding Shift, and drag from the top-right of the circle to the bottom-left. Now, the gradient should look like it is at a 45 degree angle.

Step 4
With the ellipse selected, go to Object > Path > Offset Path to bring up the offset dialog. Change the Offset to -.125 inches.

Step 5
Change the first swatch on the offset ellipse to a 50% black, the second swatch to a 4% black, and the last swatch to a 50% black.
