I made a smaller than A2 card using today's set called Be Virtuous.  My card measures 3 1/2" by 4 3/4".  I gave it a little faux binding on the side because it reminded me of the menus in the Chinese restaraunt that my parents used to take my sister and I to, for dinner when we were much younger.  I used four of the images from the set on my card!  It's a bit hard to see, but I drew in the veins on the leaves with a gold gel pen.
