keep in mind that all cards are different, even if says its 4GB its can be a tiny bit smaller or bigger and than you have a problem

I would use partclone as it can make an image of only used blocks, this should keep this from happening in the future.

You would have to restore /boot (mmcblk0p1) and / (mmcblk0p2) individually but this is a bonus in my opinion.
