I try to design a bootstrap v3.3.5 button by using the existing class btn-default, below are the sample of codes of what I had done.

<style type="text/css">
  .sign-in-facebook
  {
    background-image: url('http://i.stack.imgur.com/e2S63.png');
    background-position: -9px -7px;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-size: 39px 43px;
    padding-left: 41px;
    color: #000;
  }
  .sign-in-facebook:hover
  {
    background-image: url('http://i.stack.imgur.com/e2S63.png');
    background-position: -9px -7px;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-size: 39px 43px;
    padding-left: 41px;
    color: #000;
  }
</style>
<p>My current button got white background<br/>
<input type="button" value="Sign In with Facebook" class="btn btn-default sign-in-facebook" style="margin-top:2px; margin-bottom:2px;" >
</p>
<p>I need the current btn-default style like below<br/>
<input type="button" class="btn btn-default" value="Sign In with Facebook" />
</p>
<strong>NOTE:</strong> facebook icon at left side of the button.

    Instead of using input type button you can use button and insert the image inside the button content.

    <button class="btn btn-default">
     <img src="http://i.stack.imgur.com/e2S63.png" width="20" /> Sign In with Facebook
</button>

    The problem with doing this only with CSS is that you cannot set linear-gradient to the background you must use solid color.

    .sign-in-facebook {
    background: url('http://i.stack.imgur.com/e2S63.png') #f2f2f2;
    background-position: -9px -7px;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-size: 39px 43px;
    padding-left: 41px;
    color: #000;
  }
  .sign-in-facebook:hover {
    background: url('http://i.stack.imgur.com/e2S63.png') #e0e0e0;
    background-position: -9px -7px;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-size: 39px 43px;
    padding-left: 41px;
    color: #000;
  }

    body {
  padding: 30px;
}

    background-position: -9px -7px;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-size: 39px 43px;
    padding-left: 41px;
    color: #000;
  }
  .sign-in-facebook:hover {
    background: url('http://i.stack.imgur.com/e2S63.png') #e0e0e0;
    background-position: -9px -7px;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-size: 39px 43px;
    padding-left: 41px;
    color: #000;
  }
</style>


<h4>Only with CSS</h4>

<input type="button" value="Sign In with Facebook" class="btn btn-default sign-in-facebook" style="margin-top:2px; margin-bottom:2px;">

<h4>Only with HTML</h4>

<button class="btn btn-default">
  <img src="http://i.stack.imgur.com/e2S63.png" width="20" /> Sign In with Facebook
</button>

    Have you tried using a icon font like http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/

    Bootstrap comes with their own library, but it doesn’t have as many icons as Font Awesome.

    This works with font awesome:

    <button class="btn btn-outline-success">
   <i class="fa fa-print" aria-hidden="true"></i>
   Print
</button>
