The two answers below me basically said it all. Ask her if, for at least a couple of minutes a day, you guys could talk on the phone and catch up.
Also, if she's always using "being busy" as an excuse, she may not want to be your friend anymore. I know how life can be overwhelming sometimes, but she must have some spare time. even if it is a couple of minutes. Hopefully that's not the case, though.
=P

Call each other as much as you can to keep each other updated on what's going on in your lives. That way, you don't slip too far apart from each other. Ask her to hang out. If she says she's busy, ask about next weekend. But if she's repeatedly busy week after week after week, she's probably trying to hint that she doesn't wanna be friends anymore. And if she doesn't, just accept it. I'm sure you have other friends that can potentially be your new best friend. =)

I'm going through the same exact situation. I mean, I could have written this question. Invite her to do stuff more often. If she says she's busy this weekend, say how about next weekend? If she keeps saying she's busy, then she's probably trying to drop a hint (sorry ]=)

Now, what my best friend and I do, is we call each other and tell each other what's going on in our lives, that way we don't fall too out of the loop. And tell her how you feel. Tell you that you really value her friendship and you don't want to lose her. She probably feels the same.

Also, make sure you have other good friends besides her. That way you have people to hang out with when she is busy. But just keep reaching out to her, and I'm sure things will work themselves out =)
