no need for the counter in the event handler, Timer has a "repeat count"
//Timer(delay, repeatCount)
var timer:Timer = new Timer(5000, 1000);

You can try this:
timer.addEventListener("timer",timedFunction);
var counter:int;
timer.start();
function timedFuntion(e:TimerEvent):void{
if(counter <= 1000){
var heart:MovieClip = new Heart();
heart.x = Math.random * stage.stageWidth;
heart.y = Math.random * stage.stageHeight;
counter++;
}else{
timer.stop();
}
}

I've downloaded thanks
on other matters, when you say using a timer, you mean something like
this ( I've have this from a tutorial, mixing with my idea);
something like this?
import flash.utils.*;
var timer:Timer = new Timer(5000);
timer.addEventListener("timer",TimedFunction);
timer.start();
function timedFuntion(e:TimerEvent):void{
var heart:MovieClip = new Heart();
heart.x = Math.random * stage.stageWidth;
heart.y = Math.random * stage.stageHeight;
}
the question is , how can I stop this?

Completely un-helpful for your code, but you could also give HYPE a
whirl. Have been having a blast playing with it lately. I think the
above task is one of the examples.
