1. Find or open photo of nice bottle. I used it -> Wine Bottle. It's nice because it has not label on it and it has a nice background.
2. Resize it.
3. Select Magic Wand Tool, Tolerance - 32.
4. Click on the label, it shoud be whole selected because it's plain and simple. Press Ctrl+J to duplicate deletion. Ok, we have label on other layer.
5. Why don't add some great image to our label? Maybe bull? Bull is strong, just like our wine ;)
6. Longhorn Bull - this one looks funny and nice ;)
7. Paste it to our work. Resize (Ctrl+T) because this one is too large for our bottle.
8. Holding Ctrl click on thumbnail of our duplicated layer (Label layer) to select only label. You don't have to select this layer first.
9. Press Ctrl+Shift+I to select inverse and then Delete to remove it (All on "bull-layer"!)
10. Set this layer's mode to Overlay and reduce Opacity to about 70%.
11. If you prefer more "sketchy" label use Filter -> Artistic -> Cutout.
12. We have a background. Add some text now.
13. Select Text Tool and choose a color, I used dark green (#171c06).
14. Choose font and write some text! Why don't use some cool font like Bleeding Cowboys?
15. Write some text. If you liked it, rasterize text layer. (Right mouse button on layer -> Rasterize layer).
16. Warp it, Edit -> Transform -> Warp. Just click and drag. Look at image below:
17. Set layer's mode to Color Burn and reduce Opacity to about 75%.
18. You can add more text, details. If you will add more text repeat steps 14-17. If you'll add more details, shapes etc. don't forget to erase unnecessary areas by pressing Ctrl on "label layer", then Ctrl+Shift+I to select inverse and Delete to remove it.
19. Now you know basics, go make your own bottle of wine ;)
