arc4random_uniform with dictionaries with two data types

Hi All!

I'm currently working on a project that produces random shapes(triangle, circle, pentagon, etc). The app will display a random shape with 4 buttons below. One of the 4 buttons has an association with the random shape image. Does anyone know how I can write out a function that does the random dictionary value with a image and string data type. I've pasted the code I have so far but I keep getting an error message because my "key" data type is an image.

func randomImage() -> UIImage {

    let index: Int = Int(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(myImages.count)))
    let value = Array(myImages.values)[index]
    let key = Array(myImages.keys)[index]

    return (key, value!)

}
