Questions

How big is the Blinky PCB?

It measures 98.2 × 98.1 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Blinky use?

25 parts, built around the CD4017BE and NE555P. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Blinky KiCad files?

From the Almo-ond-tech/Flower-Blinky repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is blinky.kicad_pcb and its schematic blinky.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Blinky design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Almo-ond-tech before reusing the design.
