Check this sample program i made for you :
In windows form
place one Button and Lable:
Button Name as :Button1
Lable Name as :LBL1
Timer conral as Timer1

Declare one public integer variable as ival

VB

' ----  public variable
 Dim ival As Integer = 0
' ----  Button Click Start the Timer
    Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        LBL1.Visible = True
        Timer1.Interval = 200
        Timer1.Enabled = True
        ival = 0
        Timer1.Start()
        LBL1.Visible = True
    End Sub
' ----  Timer Tick Event blink your label
    Private Sub Timer1_Tick(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
        If LBL1.Visible = True Then
            LBL1.Visible = False
        Else
            LBL1.Visible = True
        End If
        ival = ival + 1
        If ival = 7 Then
            If LBL1.Visible = False Then
                LBL1.Visible = True
            End If
            Timer1.Stop()
        End If

    End Sub
