Sizing

The icon elements sizing is em based, so it should scale with automatically.

</button>
<button class="button">
    <span>Default button</span>
    <span class="icon border"></span>
</button>
<button class="button button-sm">
    <span>A small button</span>
    <span class="icon border"></span>
</button>
