1. A method of fabricating a tag for reflecting electromagnetic energy for the purpose of indicating the presence of said tag, said tag comprising a substrate having a surface, said method comprising:

  • a. applying a first patterned adhesive to said surface of said substrate;

    b. applying a first electrically conductive foil to said first patterned adhesive to adhere said first electrically conductive foil thereto;

    c. removing a portion of said first electrically conductive foil not adhered to said first patterned adhesive;

    d. applying a second patterned adhesive to a portion of a surface area of said tag, said surface area comprising said surface and said first electrically conductive foil;

    e. applying a preformed second electrically conductive foil to said second patterned adhesive to adhere said second electrically conductive foil to said surface area; and

    f. electrically coupling portions of said first and second electrically conductive foils to each other to form a tag circuit.
