Restore nandroid to a different phone

I updated my rooted 32 gb nexus 5 to the latest 5.1.1. It was not easy and I ran into all sorts of hiccups that left me phoneless for a couple of days. 😢

My wife also has a rooted 32 gb nexus 5 and needs to upgrade. I don't want to go through all the headaches I had with mine, so, can I safely transfer my nandroid to her sdcard and just restore it on hers? Will that work? Or is there something that is unique in each nexus 5 phone and nandroid?

Thanks.
