Dear {Name},
Thank you for extending the offer to take on {project name}. I am intrigued and excited by that line of work and eager to gain experience in it. However, I am currently working at capacity on {current projects}, so I'm afraid I have to pass this time around.
I hope that you'll keep me in mind the next time a project in this field comes around. I would really appreciate the opportunity to take it on in the future.
Sincerely,
{Name}
