Cardi B and Offset Tattoo Each Other with Wedding Dates

Cardi B and Offset are sporting some fresh ink thanks to each other -- grabbing the tattoo gun and getting to work -- all in the name of love, and reality TV.

We've obtained some images showing the two in a tattoo parlor back in December while they shot a segment for Cardi's "Cardi Tries" reality show. Each got a tattoo on their hand, drawn by the other, of the couple's wedding date 9/20/2017.

The cutest part? When Cardi and Offset hold hands, the dates line up.

We're told the original plan was just for Cardi to give Offsett a tattoo ... but he wanted to make it a couple's tat, and she agreed!

It was both Cardi and Offset's first time using a tattoo gun, and sources tell us they learned the art from celebrity tattoo artist Nikko Hurtado ... who has previously tattooed Offset and worked as a chaperone for the couple's tattoo session.
