the first thing make backup of working card on pc, either in linux or windows.

boot linux on pc, live usb-stick or something.
use "gparted" shrink and/or move partitions on sd-card. shrinking last partition on card should enough.

take new backup of card, not overwriting old one, , try write new card. depending on tool used write card might warning image big, if cant override might need cut off end of file.
( can example use "dd" in linux block size "bs" , "count" parameters copy exact number of bytes new file )
