excluding documents and desktop

In addition to a complete SD! clone, I want to, in effect, create some snapshots of my system. My Desktop and Documents folders are large. Is there any reason I can't/shouldn't exclude these folders from these supplemental backups (snapshots), which I thought I'd put into either a sparse image or a read-only image...I presume that the latter is better unless I want to reuse the target in which case a sparse image is better. Then, if I have to restore some day, I can go back to the one of snapshots and then take the Documents and Desktop folders from a more recent backup.

Am I missing something here, or will this work?
