It's called
beerlabelizer but could be used for spirits. I imagine they don't call it spirits labelizer due to the legalities of our hobby

you can control the size of the label all the way from 8 labels up to ginormous 1 label per 8 1/2" x 11" page of label paper. I normally print with 4 labels per page for a short fat 750 ml bottle
Hope that helps

Every label I make has an adult version and a innocent version with a picture of something like a piece of fruit, or a boat.

last christmas i wanted to print a bunch off to make the bottles more presentable as gifts i spent alot of time finding resources to yield good labels. i ended up printing them off on paper and taping them to the bottles...lame...i used a sketch pic of captain morgan and called the rum "Scallywags"..
i wish i found this thread then...great labels fellas!

This is a label that I used recently for a small batch (100 L) run. Usually we have more art including company logo and color, but went back to an older style label for aesthetic purposes. These are going out as Christmas/ New Years gifts to friends and such. I don't have the reverse label image that shows ABV%, bottle size, and product notes. Sorry for the blacked out areas. They show our name and location and I cannot disclose that without possibly breaking a stupid law at this time.
The product is "Lacrime Degli Angeli"- Translation: "Tears of the Angels".
Angel's Tears is a clear, somewhat syrupy triple distilled liqueur of 42% ABV based on Organic Wild-harvested herbs, roots, etc., local to the mountain areas within 25 km of my distillery.
Loved seeing the great labels posted by other members. Such creativity!!!!

I saw a cask shop in Passau Germany that had bottles of their different alcohols for sale and they were bottling in bottles that the label was sandblasted. Since I have access to all of the equipment thought I might try it on a bottle or two.
PS: Love the labels

No idea how hard the sandblasting idea would be, but you can get glass etching kits from just about any craft store. I was just about to try my hand at it, on a nice square bottle from Town Branch Bourbon.

Here is another good label site that also does coasters, keg and carboy labels, mini tags, beer and wine signs (So why not spirits) etc. No affiliation etc etc
