 Some polite ways to say "no" or refuse to do something:

I appreciate the offer, but I must decline.

Thank you for thinking of me, but I won’t be able to participate.

I’m honored, but I have to pass this time.

I really appreciate it, but I have other commitments.

That sounds interesting, but I’m afraid I can’t.

I wish I could help, but I have to focus on other priorities. 

I’m sorry, but I’m unable to take that on right now.
