You may use a custom button rather than label having no action against button.

For that you can use this piece of code to set the background image, and it will be stratched automatically. 

[yourButton setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"yourImage.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];

Although There is no action against this button, you may also disable user intraction on this button as

yourButton.userInteractionEnabled = NO;
