Adding a "flashing" feature to a message?

Another option would be to store your message into a variable and then use the ‘Blink’ customization option on the variable

Thanks Sarah, this way also works just as well. The messages I wanted blinking are already variables that display a table record so this was super easy. Thanks heaps!
