I would cut the sky diamonds, merrow reejerey, and stonybrook banneret. everything is already very cheap. i would then throw in a few distant melody and maybe two coat of arms, which give you something to spend your mana on turn 4 and 5 if the game lasts past four that is. if you get coat of arms out it should be over quick after that.

I have an aura deck pretty similiar to this one. personally i would remove 2x hartebeast & student of warfare. 2x bear umbra and throw in some cheaper ones... maybe spider umbra for some more sky defence. I'd cut guard duty out. Good job on the lands. options are great.
Yeah, I thought about that, however, if you manage to get several sangromancers out, each trigger gives more life, therefore kill spells have more bang for their buck. You are certainly right though, I thought about that alot and i think the deck would work either way.
