Swedish term or phrase: klädda kort
This is in reference to card games.

I have no context other than this extract from a Wikipedia article: http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kortspel

"Målare är en beteckning på knekt, dam och kung i den vanliga kortleken. Klädda kort har samma betydelse som målare."

The translation needs to be delivered this evening, so quick replies are appreciated.

All the best,

Richard
