Problems with staggered image and input field

Question

I have problems with the placement of the image and the input field. They are placed in a staggered way. I want them to be placed right next to each other, on a straight horizontal line. You can see the problem on the image below.

HTML:

    <div id="wrapper">

            <!--Inbox list and button to add a card-->
            <div id="inboxList" class="cellContainer">
                <p style="display: inline">Inbox</p> 
                <!--Button to add a Card-->
                <input type="button" id="AddCardBtn" value="+ Add a Card..."/> 
                <hr class="fancy-line"/> <br/>

                <!--Card div-->
                <div id="userAddedCard"> <br/>
                    <div>

                    </div>
                </div>
            </div>


        </div>

Jquery:

var $div = $('<div />').addClass('sortable-div'); 
    $('<img />', { "src": "/Pages/Images/calendar.png" }).addClass('image').appendTo($div);
    $('<input/>', { "type": "text", "class": "ctb" }).addClass('ctb').appendTo($div);

CSS:

.ctb {
    display:inline-block;
    width: 20px;    
    padding-left:2%;
}

.image {
    display:inline-block;
    height:19px;
    width:19px;
    padding-top:7%;
    padding-left:5%;

}

If you add vertical-align: bottom to your .image element that should line everything up correctly.

you just need to apply display: block; to both text and image instead of display:inline-block;

.ctb {
    display: block;
    width: 20px;    
    padding-left:2%;
}

.image {
    display: block;
    height:19px;
    width:19px;
    padding-top:7%;
    padding-left:5%;

}
