I have used GIMP to create the label

GIMP -> Xtns -> Script-Fu -> Misc -> CD Label

Create design / text etc... Save as jpg or png.

Start glabels. I have created my own template (Very easy to do) for
"Fellows 04715 CD Label 2UP". Use template to create document and paste in 
label image from GIMP.

PS I came to Dover meet in January but was not able to make it last month, 
hope to come to Rochester though.
