Wouldnt it be easier to stick the strips face down on coloured Avery label and then cut them up? ;-) Thats a bit messy...
You could even print legends for each individual component if you wanted.

Too much work. I have to make dozens of them, and they need to be cheap.

Hole punch + color self adhesive labels to make color dots.

painting the strips the color of the LED?

Yes. I had to mark them somehow, and it's faster to do it like this, before they are cut into individual components. I've stolen the idea from @davedarko who used a marker, but I didn't have markers handy, so I used acrylic paint instead.
