[flexcoders] Setting background color of Label control

How do you set the background or border color of a Label control? I've tried using a custom style: mx:Style .serverResponse { backgroundColor: blue; borderColor: white; } /mx:Style And then set the styleName=serverResponse on the label control to no avail.
