hmm... don't know about colin's old footer... but I would say to make a shape, and use some layer styles, like perhaps a small shadow, some satin, drop the opacity down.... I could play with it when I get home.... shouldn't be to hard...

Well, first make the shape of the strip of tap and make sure you add the teeth of to each end.

Color it in a light transparent yellow, add a 1 depth bevel and a small drop shadow and you have your tape :)!

Thanks for the advice but I can't really explain how colin did it but it looked almost crinkled up. like that tape was old or put on kinda messy... u know what i mean? Thanks for the help everyone who posted.!
