When you have your passwords GPG-encrypted, the only thing that you
really care is your GPG private key, so an offline backup
should work: an SD card (like you mention) or on a smartcard.
If you want to backup it up on a third-party cloud storage (dropbox,
google drive, Amazon S3, ...), consider having a strong passphrase.

I also keep a backup of the encrypted passwords on a remote private git
repository; from time to time I sync my local ~/.password-store
directory with a "pass git push".

So in case of a disaster, I re-import my private key from the offline
backup on a fresh Linux installation, git checkout my passwords and I'm
all set.

Hope it helps.

Cheers,
