What a goofy question. Pardon my ignorance.
I'm still working it through, but so far we decided to start from a sheet of paper. Top line, brewing company name (yeah, it's just a hobby, but we are tossing Three Beagles Brewing and Boisterous Beagles Brewing around). Then we had to decide on a name for the cider. Since we are going with a Beagles theme (we have two rescue beagles and one dog pound beagle/spaniel mix) - we tossed some names around. Ruby's Secret Yellow Fizzy Cider (too much bathroom humor, we nixed that name), Brash Bubbly Cider.
So we decided on Boisterous Beagles Brewing for the company name (we need to make a logo) and Brash Bubble Cider. (and that is WAY too many B's - it will have to be Brash Sparkling Cider).
Then we wrote out the ingredients. Not sure what ABV will be, but decided we should include that as well as the bottling date.
So - label will be 3.5" wide by 3" tall. Text elements will be Brand name (top center), Cider name (below brand name), Ingredients - and maybe ABV, towards the bottom center, and bottling date.
We're playing with fonts, sizes, colors and placement of each text element in Inkscape.
I used Gimp to edit a picture of one of the hounds, but think since we changed the name, perhaps I'll go through pictures again to see if there is a better choice.
So - we don't have a label. We do have a better idea of what we want to sy on the label, what size the label should be, where we want to put the text elements on the label, and where we want to put the picture on the label. I need to figure out roughly the size we want the picture to be, and that will help in placing it.
So - if anyone has a tutorial, that would be cool. If not, that's fine too. We're getting a little bit closer to figuring it out.
(now, about background colors and styles, hmmm....)
