I assume you use gtkmm2. I do something like this in my program GSpeakers:

  m_main_notebook.append_page(crossover_paned, *manage(new TabWidget("filter_small.png", _("Crossover") ) ) );

class TabWidget : public Gtk::HBox
{
public:
  TabWidget(string filename, string text);
private:
  Gtk::Image *image;
};

TabWidget::TabWidget(string filename, string text) : Gtk::HBox()
{
  try {
    Glib::RefPtr<Gdk::Pixbuf> icon = Gdk::Pixbuf::create_from_file(string(GSPEAKERS_PREFIX) + "/share/pixmaps/" + filename);
    image = manage(new Gtk::Image(icon));
    pack_start(*image);
  } catch (Gdk::PixbufError e) {
    cout << e.code() << endl;
  }  catch (Glib::FileError fe) {
    cout << fe.code() << endl;
  }
  
  pack_start(*(manage(new Gtk::Label(text))));
  show_all();

}

That works for me.
