In chapter 547, when Rasa sees Karura's shape in Gaara's sand, what he says is (translated mind you) "Karura... You... You still live on inside of this child..." This implies that Karura's protection isn't inside the sand, but Gaara himself, and merely manipulates the sand to achieve that end, which would make sense, since again, Sand control is something Gaara is naturally capable of.
