Hi rizmysl,
You cannot directly set the backgroundColor to a Label control however you can do it by getting a reference to the underlying TextField control inside the Label, for that you need to write some actionscript.
Check out the below code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" creationComplete="init()">
     <mx:Style>
          .texfield{ width:300; height:30; background-color:red; fontWeight:bold;}
     </mx:Style>
     <mx:Script>
      <![CDATA[
       import mx.core.IUITextField;
       private function init():void
        //Getting reference to the underlying TextFiled control inside Label
        var tf:IUITextField = (myTextField.mx_internal::getTextField());
        tf.background = true;
        tf.backgroundColor = 0XFF0000;
        tf.width = 300;
        tf.height = 30;
      ]]>
     </mx:Script>
     <mx:Label x="25" y="113" text="My Sample Text Goes Here ...."  styleName="texfield" id="myTextField" />
</mx:Application>
