You can’t pay more life than you have.

2012-05-01wotc

A player may choose to pay life for some creatures and sacrifice the rest. It’s not an all-or-nothing decision.

2012-05-01wotc

If you can’t sacrifice a creature (perhaps because of Sigarda, Host of Herons), you can choose not to pay life and nothing will happen.
